What's the back of the iPhone made out of?

Im not quite sure if it's a plastic or a type of aluminum with a different finish.
Any ideas?

Someone posted a video of an iPhone stress test and, after dropping several times from varying heights and on surfaces of varying hardness and texture, only the shiny metallic portion around the screen became scuffed. They didn't show an image of what the back looked like, so I'd imagine that it's easier to scratch than the screen, but, at the same time, fairly resistant to notable damage.

What is the iphone line out impedance

using the dock connector, what is the iphone line out impedance?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Is your Powerbook one that has Optical in and out? If it is, then it has SPDIF ports instead of the usual minijacks of older Powerbooks. You can tell by opening Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info -> selecting Audio (Built-in). If SPDIF is mentioned, then you have Optical in and out.
If it is, then I found this interesting article which may help you out:

What are the screens made of on iPod nanos?

Hi I am looking to buy an iPod nano, most interested in 6th gen but everything from 4th onward looks decent to me... My current music player is last years model of the 8gb Sony Walkman. The very first time I put it in my pocket and went for a walk, the coins in my pocket made quite the mess out of my screen. The sound quality on the unit is amazing though... If I am going to invest in a new player, it has to have a scratch resistant screen like gorilla glass. What are the screens made of on iPod nanos and how well do they perform against being in a pocket with things such as coins, keys and a lighter?
Thanks in advance for any helpful responses

It is Gorilla glass and is scratch resistant but not impervious. I've carried mine in my pocket with coins, keys, etc.

HT201401 What causes the iPhone 4S to shut down to a black screen when it has full power?

What causes the iPhone 4S to shut down to a black screen when it has full power? I have cleared the open icons and it works for one day then shuts down again.

Software hiccup, glitch or maybe faulty battery. Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. See if this helps. If still problem that you think is serious enough to fix, all iPhone 4S have full Warranty. Make Genius Reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution.

What is the iphone's first aid specs incase it got soaked in water acciedentaly ??

what is the iphone's first aid specs in case it got accidently soaked in water??

As I said it will lock to the first UK sim inserted .There is a chance as you appear not to have yet put in a UK sim it is not actually locked but is useless outside the UK as it is looking for a UK carrier .
It is also not clear how it would lock to Tigo and then not function
You could try contacting Apple if they have a contact in Columbia .
Apple care may tell you if and to whom the iPhone is locked to and then all you can do
is see the carrier's criteria for unlocking assuming they do

What is the iPhone "Other" capacity seen in iTunes?

What is the iPhone “Other” capacity seen in iTunes?

Other includes data such as iPhone settings, contacts, calendar events, Safari bookmarks/cache/cookies, email and email attachments, SMS/MMS/iMessages, notes, app data, Safari cache, cookies and bookmarks, stored passwords, search index, home screen organization, wi-fi network data, etc. It should generally be about 1GB. If it's significantly larger than this it contains something corrupt; restoring the phone should resolve this.

I am unset with the iphone come out

I am unset about the iphone coming out. I just got my phone last year and if I knew the iphone 4 was coming to verizon I would have waited. Now if i want one I have to pay the full retail price. I think everyone who renewed there contract last year should get a discount, not just people who renewed in November. Now I have to wait until my contract renew. This is so wrong. I have been with Verizon a very long time and to be treated like this make me wait to change services.

{please keep your posts courteous}you signed a contract you have to honor it, if you want the phone do like the rest of us who were in the middle of a contract did and pay full retail price. Verizon shouldn't have to give us a discount just because we want a new phone. The iphone is no different then any other phone as far as how their contracts are. You knew what you signed before you signed the contract. And as far as giving those who purchased in November a discount, I actually did purchase my phone the 26th of November which does quialify for a discount, but it would make more sense to actually sell your current phone somewhere such as e-bay to offset the price of the full retail price of the iphone. You would probably get more money then what Verizon is actually offering. If Verizon gave everyone discounting pricing just for the iphone that would be very unfair to those customers who do not want an iphone but possibly want a droid or some other new device so it's best they stick to their contract and make customers actually honor the contract they signed.

What are the frameworks available out there

I just want to know what are the frameworks available out there for Desktop application ?

I want to create a standalone application in Java and I heard that I can make it easier if I follow a framework.
After having a look at frameworks for Java, it just completely confuse me, as it is very different from frameworks for Flash (which I do most).
The java framework covers much more stuff than what Flash framework covers (which mainly regulate the way how the SWF communicate with the server and the design of the classes )
I still wonder what is the definition of framework in Java ? Do I really need one for a standalone application, or I just need to follow the MVC design for my classes ?
I just need to get it right before I actually work on my program.
Thanks.

As this is a user to user technical support forum, we would have no way of knowing. That being said, literally 5 seconds of a google search would provide a lot of insight into possibilities.

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the thief logs out of iCloud. Would we able to locate the macbook?

I was looking at the "Find my iPhone" app and I have a doubt regarding how it works for the macbook. In order to detect the location, the macbook should remain signed into iCloud. What if the person who has stolen my macbook logs out of iCloud.
It should work fine for iPhone/iPad because we can enable "Restrictions" to prevent the user from signing out of iCloud. Do we have simialr settings for the macbook?
Thanks,

If it's not on the device list, it indicates that someone has gone to Find My iPhone on icloud.com and manually deleted it from the device list (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0eeddd), and it has not gone back online since (which would cause it to reappear on the device list; Find My iPhone has been turned of in settings on the device; the iClolud account has been deleted from the device; or the entire devices has been erased and restored.
Unfortunately, there's no other way to track the phone other than through Find My iPhone. You could call your carrier and see if they would blackliste it so at least the theif couldn't use it.
